javascript thread: Name Tag and Back Button


Message #1 by KATHLEEN.M.WHALEN@c... on Mon, 16 Apr 2001 11:30:36 -0500



       I have an HTML page that contains several tables that are
       separated using the <DIV> tag. =FFThis give my page the illusion
       of frames (upper table looks like frame 1 and bottom table
       scrolls like frame 2).
       Inside the lower table I have several <a name> tags. =FFWhen I
       click on the appropriate hyperlinks, my cursor is moved down
       the page to the appropriate position. =FFWhen I click the back
       button to return to my original spot, the only thing that
       changes is my URL. =FFMy cursor/window does not navigate back to
       where I came from on the page.

       For example, when I click on the link my URL looks like
       "idtp.thml#tagname"
       When I click on the back button my URL looks like "idtp.html"
       -- the cursor/window does not move.

       I noticed when I take away the <DIV> tags the back button works
       fine. =FFAm I using the <DIV> tag improperly?
       Any ideas?

       KMW
